Fergy Jr. a chip off old block (Montreal Gazette)
From The Montreal Gazette:
by JACK TODD, The Gazette
For the first time, the younger Ferguson is beginning a season as GM of the Leafs without the support, advice or understanding of the man who might have been the prototype power forward in the National Hockey League, the tough guy whose loyalty to team and teammates was unsurpassed. John Ferguson Sr. died July 14 at age 68.
John Ferguson Jr. will go on, sustained by the lessons imparted from the days when his father was winning five Stanley Cups in eight seasons with the Canadiens and he himself was getting sticks of Wrigley's gum from Habs equipment manager Eddie Palchak.
It's a powerful legacy - and it has to be.
